But the Anmer Hall residence needn’t start writing mournful tweets and passive-aggressively asking Prince William if there is anything it did wrong, as, per the official statement, the family will still be spending some time there, as well: “Their Royal Highnesses love their time in Norfolk and it will continue to be their home. From this autumn, however, the Duke and Duchess will increasingly base their family at Kensington Palace. As they have in recent years, their royal Highnesses are keen to continue to increase their official work on behalf of the Queen and for the charities and causes they support, which will require greater time spent in London.”

Preparations have been made over the past few years for this move, as their residence at Kensington Palace underwent a $6.5 million renovation recently. The move also means Prince William will officially give up his job as an air-ambulance pilot, after a two-year stint. Additionally, Prince George will transfer to Wetherby Pre-Preparatory School in London (where both William and Harry went), and Charlotte will start school at an undisclosed location in the city.

Londoners should be expecting to see more of Kate and William now, as well, as the move will likely see an uptick in their engagements. As a royal source put it to People, “They will be here in London and out and about doing more things.” While Kate’s “primary role” will be as a “mother,” according to the People source, Kate and William will be spending a “significant amount of time” in the capital.

This is exciting news for London residents and for the parents of four-year-olds enrolled in the Wetherby Pre-Preparatory School for next year, sure, though disappointing for William’s co-workers at the air-ambulance base, and the shopkeepers in Norfolk, now to have far fewer, whispered stories of a “So, today, Kate came in and she was . . .” nature to tell their families over dinner.
